Wattleseed Ensemble brings some of Australia’s most exciting young performers together, combining their expertise on period instruments with wide-ranging repertoire and a love of storytelling through music. After their debut at the Port Fairy Spring Music Festival in November 2020, they have performed for Musica Viva Australia, the Melbourne Recital Centre, and the 3MBS festival Music, She Wrote. In March 2022 they will embark on their first tour, HOME: a concert that explores the incredibly diverse, yet unifying concept of home that each person, and each piece of music holds. At its centre is the premiere of a new work From Home by Melbourne-based composer Matt Laing, a far-reaching and thought-provoking piece based on the changing environment of the Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia.
 
Wattleseed’s raison d’etre is to bring diverse audiences together in harmonious contemplation of music, and the things that make us human. From Hildegard von Bingen, they flow seamlessly into the high Baroque, folk music and contemporary Australian works, creating fascinating and intimate sound worlds.
